Back home again and in one piece more or less

Apologies to all my imagined fans out there for not posting again sooner...I returned tonight from Rochester, NY, younger son in tow. He remains with us until Tuesday, at which point he spread his wings and soars off to the high desert country in Texas, there to overlook his aunt's new art gallery for the nonce. I shall return to the story again so soon as my Muse comes flitting about, nipping at my nethers, and making a general nuisance of herself. Peace.
